In the lower grades, most backpacks weighed just a pound or two. Out of 105 students in grades one through three, only one pack weighed more than 10 pounds. But starting in fourth grade, average weight rose notably, from 3.2 pounds to 4.3 pounds in fifth grade and 7.1 pounds in grade six. And the number of very heavy packs -- 13, 15, 17, 20 pounds -- also rose. It's important to note that the packs were weighed at the start of the school year.
First off, you should know what constitutes weighted and unweighted GPA in high school. Traditional GPAs are unweighted, which means they're measured on a scale of 0 to 4.0. A 4.0 is an A average, a 3.0 is a B average, a 2.0 is a C average, a 1.0 is a D average, and anything below that represents a failing grade. Unweighted GPAs do not take the levels of your classes into account. An A in an AP or Honors class will translate into a 4.0 GPA, and so will an A in a low-level class. An unweighted GPA wonât change based on the types of classes youâre taking; it represents your grades in isolation. Weighted GPAs are a bit more complicated.
